--- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Mission Microwave SSPA and SSPB using SNMP protocol.
It was tested with various Single and Dual Band units using SNMPv3 with the following authentification parameters:
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type. Tool-bar functions not mentioned here are described at the general description of device windows .
--- The transmit parameters. --- The SSPA meter readings. --- The faults page. --- The device info page. --- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.Configuration parameters
At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the unit.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | The SNMP address specification for the device (details below). |
| readBackDelay | Defines the delay the driver uses when it reads back parameters recently commanded. The delay is initialized at a proved preset value which should not be changed under normal circumstances. |
| lowOutputThreshold | Sets the low rf output level threshold level. |
| lowOutputAlarmType | Sets the low rf output level alarm type. |
| highOutputThreshold | Sets the high rf output level threshold level. |
| highOutputAlarmType | Sets the high rf output level alarm type. |
| highReflThreshold | Sets the high reflected power threshold level. |
| highReflAlarmType | Sets the high reflected power alarm type. |
| txReference | Sets the reference source. |
| referenceFallback | Sets the reference source fallback behaviour. |
| hasDualBand | Defines if the units is single or dual band. |
| maxNullResponses | Defines the maximum allowed amount of consecutive Null responses before raising a Communication Fault. This is a Workaround as some units respond with Null on random requests due to unknown/unsolved FW problems. |
| deviceComment | An optional text entered here appears as an addition to the tooltip which is shown while the mouse is placed over a device icon in the GUI. The "\n" character sequence is translated into a newline character, splitting the text into multiple lines. |
SNMP address specification
The full address consists of the following fields: aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:pppp read-community write-community
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd | The IP address of the device in 'dotted quad' notation. This field is mandatory. |
| pppp | The IP port number where the device accepts SNMP requests. The port number may be omitted, the driver uses the standard port 161 in this case. |
| read-community | The SNMP read community name. This must match the read community expected by the device. |
| write-community | The SNMP write community name. This must match the write community expected by the device. The write community name may be omitted, the driver uses the read community name for both, read and write in this case. If both community names are missing, the driver uses public as a default for read and write community string. |
